The myth of A "solid labor
vote" can now be burled. After
a national survey. It can be re-
ported here that every one of
the possible candidates for the
presidential nominations this
fall has strong labor backing
Including Senator Taft and the
Southern rebels against Presi-
dent Tinman.
National labor leaders no
longer can control or deliver a
'national labor vote." In fact,
this year many of them won't
even try for there are as
many varieties of labor political
sentiment as Heinz has pickles.
This Is evidenced by wide
open splits inside labor and the
many labor attacks upon the
favorite candidate at other bro-
ther union leaders.
There are some Eastern labor
chiefs, for example, who long
ago would have publicly dis-
patched delegations to the
White House urging Mr. Tru-
man to declare for the nomi-
nation, but who now hold off
because they have heard that
corruption hunter Newbold Mor-
ris already has evidence of
strong underworld links, via
Frankie Costello, with the na-
tional government.
These Fair Deal labor
leaders have heard that
Morris' aides are digging
into the ties between Chi-
cago and other mid-west-
ern mobs and high govern-
ment officials and think
tliis teas the unspoken rea-
son for Newbold's threat to
Quit if Mr. Truman pro-
tects anyone, that now fa-
mous threat voiced softly
but determinedly by Morris
over the air last Sunday.
Morris believes these "con-
nections" yo right into the
Treasury and Justice De-
partments.
In view of this, some of the
most ardent New Del 1-bor
chiefs arc waiting for develop-
ment of the Elsenhower boom,

Other criticism of General

"This nation Isn't going to
elect a sphinx, and the phrase

platform."

By BOB RUARK
NEW YORK.Once in a while, when the state
of the French cabinet, taxes, Truman, inflation,
wars, Russians, diseases, diets, dandruff, and the
diagnoses for all the ills from athlete's ankle to
trichinosis of the trylcycle start to chew away at
my nerves, I like to stop and dwell a bit on my
Uncle Jirnmy.
Uncle Jimmy believed a few things fervently.
One of the things he believed was that haste
made waste, and anybody who got himself In an
uproar was apt to unsettle his digestion and may-
be cause the roof to leak.
Uncle Jimmy tended store in a little town call-
ed SOuth4'ort. N. C. I se* he tended iW-A&ually,
he supervised Its presence.
They tell a story about Uncle Jimmy that fits
my mood right now.
Seems he was sitting on something on the front
piazza of his store one day, enjoying the sun-
shine and contemplating his tummy. A young
man whizzed up and said:
"Mister Jimmy, I want a half-pound of ten-
penny nails.
"Fine, son," Uncle Jimmy said. "Go right on
Into the store and weigh 'em out yourself."
The young man disappeared, "Into the little
general store, and after five minutes or so he
came out.
"Mister Jimmy," he said. "I looked high and I
looked low, and doggoned If I seen hide nor hair
of any tenpenny nails."
"I know we got some somewhere," Uncle Jim-
my replied. "You best go back and look 'em up
some more.
"Look back there behind where we keep the
ginger snaps and the sour pickle kags. They got
to be somewhere."
Young man vanished. Ten minutes passed be-
fore he was back, empty-handed.
"Dog take It, Mister Jimmy," he said. "I looked
everywhere from under the over-balls to up on
the shelf where you keep the apple tobacco, and
there ain't nary a nail In the house. Not no ten-
penny nails, anyhow, there ain't."
*
Uncle Jimmy scratched himself and looked an-
noyed. "Sure's gun's iron, 'son," he said. "I reckon
we got a whole kag of those tenpenny nails in
here no longer ago 'h yesterday or the day be-
fore. I.swear I can't imagine what went with "em
unless some..."
Uncle Jimmy lifted his head an inch, and re-
membrance struck.
"Why, sho, son," he said. "All the time we been
talkln' about them nails and all the time you
were lookln' for 'em in the store, I Just remember
I been slttin' on that kag of nails the whole dog-
goned time.
"Suppose, son," Uncle Jimmy said, "You just
come back here tomorrow and pick up your nails."
My Uncle Jimmy, it seems to me, was a man
of admirable restraint, and he lived long and
happily.
,. He was parcel of a serene period .when people
wios generally died of did age instead of some
fancy doctor' delightart age in which the gal-
lopin' consumption and heart disease were about
the only diagnosable fatal ills.
It was an age yet unexplolted by psychiatrists,
television, the airplane, or the virus Infection.
There was no such thing in those days as a
diet. It was assumed that people who passed
their prime would get fat, and any middle-aged
woman who was not comfortably bolstered was
a bad advertisement for her own kitchen.
Taxes, while technically in existence, were so
mlniscule as to be invisible to all but million-
aires, who paid two percent or some such ridi-
culous figure.
The state had not discovered liquor as a black-
mail device to prey on man's weakness pre-
Volstead bonded stuff was a buck or so the full
32-ounce quart and when Prohibition came non-
blinding shine sold in fruit jars for 50 cents a
quart or $1.50 the gallon.
There was literally nothing so imperative that
It couldn't wait another day, like Uncle Jimmy's
keg of nails.
We had no radio to Impress us with doom, no
atom to brood about, and Europe was so far away
that nobody but rich sasslety folks and sailors
ever went there.
Gentlemen chewed tobacco and spat Into the
sand, and ladies stayed out of politics and, large-
ly, out of commerce.
I was mighty young, but I remember it as a
pleasant time.
And I am wondering today If destiny would not
be served as well if everybody waited until to-
morrow to come back for those tenpenny nails
especially when the man that owns *em Is slttin'
on 'em.
Republican Mystery
By Joseph and Stewart Alsop

WASHINGTON.-The Republican situation in
the South is just about the queerest feature of
the current political scene. Its mysterious out-
lines are startllngly disclosed by a poll of the
editors and political experts of 23 leading South-
ern newspapers.
Their answers, which blanket the traditionally
Solid South, are as follows:
First, the established Southern Republican
leaders almost unanimously favor the candidacy
of Sen. Robert T. Taft, of Ohio.
These men have run their state Republican
parties for many decades like so many small,
profitable, exclusive clubs, even in some cases
holding their political conventions in their own
houses, as indicated in the last report In this
space.
They control the party machinery, and If they
can prevent hoi pollol from breaking Into their
clubs, they will send Taft delegation to Chicago,
They are generally expected to succeed In Ar-
kansas, Florida. Mississippi, Tennessee and West
Virginia.
Second, the Southern popular surge in favor of
General of the Army Dwight D. Eisenhower has
caused a good deal of vulgar battering on the
club doors In Alabama, Louisiana, Kentucky,
North Carolina, Virginia and Texas.
It Is very far from excluded that the old-line
Republican leaders will manage to hold several
of these states for Taft. In others, the Eisenhower
leaders may pick up a delegate or so. as they
have in Kentucky, where the most brutal repres-
sive tactics of the pro-Taft faction have held the
Taft loss to an estimated two delegates.
And in still other states, like North Carolina, a
considerable share of the delegates may go for
Elsenhower.
Third, however, Sen. Taft, the favorite of the
professionals, appears to be highly unlikely to
carry a single southern state for his party,
whereas Gen Elsenhower would probably carry
several of them.
On this point, the expression of the Southern
editors and political experts is both frank and
clear.
The situation seems a trifle anomalous, to put
it mildly.
The practical explanation lies, of course, in the
careful cultivation of the Southern political vine,
yard both by Sen. Taft himself and by such ex-
pert lieutenants as John Marshall and Brazllla
Carroll Reece. Yet this quite obvious practical
explanation does not answer the really big ques-
tion confronting the national Republican partv.
This is the question, "How is any Republican to
be elected to the Presidency who cannot break
the Solid South?"
It is wrong, nowadays, to base political calcu-
lations on the patern of 1924 and 192s, when
California was still a Republican state and New
York was so evenly divided that the Republicans
always carried it in their good years.
The Democrats have now gained so much
strength in Northern states like these that in
California, for example. Democratic registration
outweighs Republican by two to one.
No Republican candidate without" powerful ap-
peal to the broad mass of independent voters
(whom Sen. Taft has rather publicly reiected
can reasonably hope, nowadays, for an old-fash-
ioned Republican sweep in the North.
The Southern Democratic leaders have mean-
while made doubly sure that Sen. Taft will not
make anv inroads in the South. This is one of
the results of the candidacy of the able Sen.
Richard R. Russell, of Georgia.
If the Republicans pick Eisenhower, Russell
will almost certainly stand down. But if it is Taft
and Truman, then Russell will run. and the
Southern votes that Taft might get will go to
Russell.
All in all. these are Important practical prob-
lems for the Republican to ponder .
Drew Pearson says: Virgin Islands' first public housing
project is memorial to Paul M. Pearson, who wanted
only to be remembered in hearts of men; Bankrupt
islands now show marked evidences of returning pros-
perity. .
BT. THOMAS Virgin Islands, On a mountain top looking
out over the island-studded Caribbean is a stone bench labeled
"Drake's Seat," where Sir Frahcis Drake is supposed to have sat
and watched for pirates and the Spanish fleet in those days long
before dlesel-propelled ships, airplanes, or such modern detectors
as radar.
On that seat, many years ago, my father used to sit when
he was the first civil governor of the Virgin Islands, looking out
over the Caribbean trying to chart a more prosperous economy
from the ruins of abandoned sugar mills and the rum distilleries
that were no more.
The problem of prosperity was fairly simple In Francis Drake's
day.
i His fleet merely lurked In the channel between St. Thomas
and the British island of Trtola and pounced on Spanish gal-
leons loaded with gold as they started back to Spain.
Or, later, British and Danish planters merely imported more
African slaves for their suggar fields and reaped a wealth which
made that area one of the most prosperous in the world
But the British fleet which once made these islands wealthy
also contributed to their downfall.
When it blockaded France during the Napoleonic war, Napo-
leon developed beet sugar. That, plus the end of slavery, plus the
purchase of the Virgin Islands from Denmark by Woodrow Wil-
son in 1917, plus oil-burning vessels which no longer need dock
at St. Thomas for coal, left these islands poverty stricken and
hopeless, with-the Negro population seething with unrest.
ISLANDS BRANDED A "POORHOUSE" .
ft was at this point, at the height of the Hoover depression,
that my father took over.
Herbert Hoover, who appointed him, made one visit to the
islands, publicly branded them "an effective poorhouse" and went
back to worry about things closed to home: That was in 1931.
The problem of reviving those bankrupt Islands eventually
broke my father. He left the islands four years later, criticized
and reviled. The white plantation owners conspired against him.
The Negro politicians lampooned him. He was even accused of
stealing four bags of cement.
But sometimes those who are reylled the most eventually are
revered the most, and last week I was invited back to Bt. Tho-
mas to dedicate the first public housing protect in these Islands.
It was named the "Paul M. Pearson Gardens" In fathers
honor.
I had not been In the islands for 21 years.
Frankly, I had not wanted to go there. Though my father
was not embittered by the treatment which brought an early end
to his life, I was. I had no desire to return.
I was glad, however, that I did.
All over the islands are landmarks to the dreams that father
dreamed, the dreams he made come true.
8t. Thomas, where he laid the groundwork for a new tourist
trade, Is now teeming with visitors.
The old pirate's den Bluebird Castle which he bought
on behalf of the government and turned into a hotel, is so crowd-
ed you can't get In.
In his day, private enterprise wouldn't gamble on the tour-
ist trade; hence father's move in remodeling Bluebird Castle.
But today the enterprising firm of Kessler and Behn has put
up the magnificent Virgin Island hotel, while a dozen others have
blossomed forth all over the islands.
SCOFFED AT ORGANIfcATON,
Half the population of St. Crolx was unemployed when fa-
ther took over.
The three Danish sugar mills were closed and the Red. Cross
had sent down from Washington to feed the people.
by.the Virgin Islandsj
g smoke and gulping j
could be hauled in.
And I Jfcfdn't help remembering, as I watched a giant crene^
heap sugar cane In the maw of the mill, how the local planta-
tion owners scoffed at father's organization of this cooperative
company. .....
Yet doing an excellent lob of running it today is the son of
the big plantation owner who most opposed it.
GOOD JOB DONE '
I still found some dlehards who wrung their hands over:
"Pearson policies." _". I
They didn't like the fact that he put across universal suf-
frage in the islands removed the requirement that only property
owners could vote. .. .i^I
A few even deplored the fact that educational standards had
risen, that new schools had been built, that father had persuaded
Tuskegee, Flsk University, Howard, Hampton and other Negro
colleges In the north to grant scholarships to Virgin islands
teachers, most of whom then lacked even hlgh-chool training.
But even the dlehards admitted he had done a good job on
such things as the Virgin Islands National Bank and the V.
Cooperative which now sells thousands of straw hats, handbags
and native mats annually. ,. i
Danish currency and a Danish bank still dominated the fin-
ances of the. islands when father took over.
But after long haggling with the RFC, father finally floated
a $15,000 loan to establish an all-American national bank.
It took him weeks to persuade the RFC to part with a mere
$150,000 perhaps because he didn't know the mink-coat tech-
On top of this he had to sell $26,000 shares of stock locally.
This was like pulling teeth. Local businessmen Just did not want
to invest in the islands. .
Finally, by his own personal solicitation he sold the bans:
Last week that sanie stock of the Virgin Islands National
Bank sold for $188 a share. It's been earning a dividend of 10
per cent
MEMORIAL IN HEARTS OF MEN
After father left the Virgin Islands in 1936 he became publlo
housing administrator under PWA. ..... ,_
That was long before the Taft public housing act and it took
a lot of pioneering to put slum clearance across.
In California, for instance, a law banned any help from Fed-
eral funds for public housing, and father undertook to persuade
the legislature to change the law. _
After a month of shuttling between Sacramento and San
Francisco, he succeeded. The law was revoked. A few days lau.
father died.
A letter he left asked that no marker be placed on nis
grave. He wanted only to be remembered in the hearts of men.
So his ashes were scattered off the Golden Gate.
But today, off the blue waters of the Caribbean, is being
erected the Virgin Islands' first public housing project.
And I know nothing would have pleased him more than tf
have these buildings for the humble and the poor named the Pa
M. Pearson Gardens, as a memorial to him and the people he
tried to help.

Truman: Tax Cleanup Vote Will
Sort Talkers From Reformers
WASHINGTON, March 8 (UP) President
Truman demanded yesterday that Senators ap-
prove his tax reform plan or stand accused of using
the "corruption in government" issue for political
purposes with no desire for a real cleanup.
Simultaneously, Rep. Cecil R. King (D-Calif.),
head House tax investigator, announced he will do
all he can to get the Senate to approve the plan,
and will make a nationwide speech endorsing it
Monday night,
King took the extraordinary step because, he
said, the present political appointment of tax col-
lectors "is a dangerous and unworkable system"
that should be abolished.
Shortly before taking off for a
vacation at Key West. Fla the
President dispatched a strong
letter to Vice President Alben W.
Barklev assertion that the vote
on the plan next week: will show
"who It Is that Is just talking a-
bout corruption and who it is
that really wants to do some-
thing about It."
He made no distinction be-
tween Republicans and Demo-
crats Who oppose his plsn,
which would replace the pres-
ent M politically appointed
tax collectors with up to 5 de-
puty Wlleetor chosen under
civil service rules.
Several prominent Senate de-
mocrats. Including Walter F.
George-of Georgia, John 1,. Mc-
Clellan of Arkansas and Clyde R
Hoey df North.Carolina are pub-
licly on record as opposed to the
reorganisation plan.
The Senate government oper-
ations committee, which McClel-
lan heads, voted 7 to 5 Wednes-
day to kill the House-approved
plan.
It will become law March 14
unless 49 Senators vote It down
when it comes to a floor vote late
next week.
Sens. Hubert H. Humphrey (D-
Mlnn.) and Blalr Moody ID-
Mich.), government operations
committee members who voted
for the plan, issued a statement
urging the Senate to heed Mr.
Truman.
"The vote on that plan will tell
who is willing to stand up and
be cdrited for the merit system
and against the patronage sys-
tem," they said.
Sen. Karl E. Mundt of South
Dakota, one of the five Repub-
licans who voted against the
reorganization plan, called the
Presidential appeal "the death
bed repentance of a President
near the end of his adminis-
tration."
He said It may be an "eleventh
hour attempt to freeze into per-
manent status many of the per-
sonnel operating In the bureau
during Uie blackest hour of Its
existence."
Mr. Truman's letter to Bark-
ley Was his second public appeal
this v/eek for its approval.
It was his first big attempt this
year to put all Senatorsinclud-
ing those of his own party
squarely on the spot on an Ad-
ministration-backed measure.
The President noted that the
Internal Revenue, Bureau, as
now set up. has been one of the
chief targets of those charging
corruption In the government.
'Millions of American taxpay-
ers will be watching the Senate
action dn the reorganization
plan." he said.
"They have been hearing a lot
lately about corruption in gov-
ernment and they are concern-
ed about what is being done to
strengthen the Federal service
against It."
These taxpayers "will be
greatly Interested In seeing '
whether senators are more In-
terested In their political pa-
tronage than In good public
service," the President said.
"They will be greatly Interest-
ed In seeing whether some sena-
tors are more Interested in usine
corruption as a vehicle to attack
he administration than they arc
in actually taking steps to assure
clean government."
He recalled that five of the six
Republicans on the Senate com-
mittee voted against his plan
lajt week.
"I think It Is fair to ask whe-
ther they really want to do
something to assure clean, ef-
ficient government or whether
all their talk is pure politics."
House members seldom try to
get the Senate to override one of
its own committees, but King
said his tax scandal investiga-
tion has left him with strong
feelings.
"The work of a congressional
committee such as ours cannot
be justified unless the Congress
will back up the findings of the
committee with appropriate le-
gislation." he told reports.
He added that If the plan Is
rejected, the public Is bound to
get the idea that "patronage
rights are considered more Im-
portant than sound and honest
tax administration."
To concentrate on the tax re-
form issue, King announced that
nubile hearings slated by his
House tax investigating subcom-
mittee for Monday will be post-
poned until Thursday.
Five or six federal tax collec-
tion workers from New York ci-
ty have been subpoenaed to tes-
tify.
The subcommittee plans to
quiz former Internal revenue
commissioner Joseph D. Nunan
Jr.. behind closed doors In the
next few days, along with other
former bureau officials under
fire recently.

There Is a lot implied in those

To earn the right to the word
"pleasant" we would have to
take the frowns off our faces,
the Irritability out of our voices
the sharpness out of our re-

To earn the right to the word
"patient" we would have to slow
,down a little. We would need
[time to cope with small prob-
lems calmly, to listen to others
to be willing to take our turn,
to go through life without hur-
rying or trying to hurry others.
To earn the right to the word
"friendliness" we would have to
start looking for the best, rath-

We would have to be willing
to lend a helping hand when-
ever possible to treat others
with respect and consideration.
to try to leave people feeling
more pleased with themselves
for having had even a brief en-
counter with us..
Those words Imply a lot. But
not more than most of us could

SANFORD, Me. (UP)In mid-
winter it Just doesn't seem pos-
sible, but the fact is that Palm
Beach cloth Is manufactured ex-
clusively In Maine,
One of the neatest safety plays
have seen in a long time Was ex-
ecuted In a rubber bridge game
the other day by Gen. Robert J.
Gill, of Baltimore. Curiously
enough, General Gill was tuning
up his game for the Maryland
State Tournament, but found
himself making a play that he
wouldn't dream o making In a
tournament.
West opened the queen of
clubs, and General Gill won the
trick at once with dummy's king.
A quick count showed that he
needed our diamond tricks to
assure the contract. How could
he make sure of those four
tricks?
After some thought, he enter-
ed his hand with the king of
hearts to begin the diamonds by
leading a low card from his own
hand towards dummy. This play
was sure to produce four dia-
mond tricks even-if one oppon-
ent held all the missing cards In
the suit.
West played a low diamond,
and dummy won with the queen.
East? discard revealed the situa-
tion, so General Gill led a sec-
ond diamond to his ace and then
continued by leading a low dia-
mond towards dummy. West
could take his king, but he could
not stop declarer from winning
four tricks in the suit.
Gill, who was a bridge tourna-
ment star before he was a gen-
eral, would have lost his con-
tract If he had been playing the
0+

hand In a pair tournament. In
such a game It is Important to
play for extra tricks, ao he would
have led the queen of diamonds!
from dummy at the second trick.
This attempted finesse would!
lose to West's king, of course. I
Unfortunately, West would still!
have a second winner in dia-,
monds. and declarer would win
only three tricks in that suit.

LONDON, March 8 (BIS).
While United States Congress-
men threatened to cut foreign
aid appropriations on the score
that European countries are not
pulling their weight in NATO,
official sources here today re-
leased the following list of Brit-
ish contributions to Western
security.
1) Britain is producing more
military equipment than all
other European NATO powers
combined.
2) With nearly five crack di-
visions in Germany, Britain is
today the leading land power in
West Europe. Of these five di-
visions three are armored, (the
Sixth 'Mailed Fist'; the Seventh
Desert Rats' and the Eleventh
"The Raging Bulls." They are
equipped with the latest 50-ton
Centurion tanks.
8) This powwru' tank force
Is the main armored striking
group at present available to
General Eisenhower.
4) Britain's 2nd Tactical Air
Force in Germany is substant-
ially larger than any other West
European air unit. This year it
is being expanded to include
squadrons equipped with the
latest Venom jet fighters.
6) British designed Jet fight-

British Film Studios Using
Television Cameras For Test
LONDON. March 8 Televi-
sion is now being used in Brit-
ish film studios for the first
time.
A complete three-camera unit,
supplied by Marconi's Wireless
Telegraph Co. Ltd., has been in-
stalled at the Elstree studios of
Associated British and Robert
Clark, executive director in
charge of production at Elstree
Studios is to use television as a
means of testing whether film
stories mooted for production are
likely to prove box-office win-
ners.
Prefabricated film sets wUl be
standing ready on one of the
large sound stages at Elstree. A
cast of well-known players,
headed bv James Donald and Is-
abel Dean will then perform a
full-length story.
But instead of the usual film
cameras, they will be "shot" by
television cameras. As the story
is performed it will be trans-
mitted into one of the large
viewing theaters, where the
"film try-out" will be viewed by
a representative bodv of execu-
tives and film v and television
technicians.
By this method, the experts
ahould.be able to assess whether
or not*the televised story will be
a llkelv subject for filming in
the normal manner.
It is believed that this is the
very first time in history that
this method of pre-fllmlng by
television has been carried out in
Britain. The scheme has manv
advantages. Showmen normally
ludge a 'film's potentialities bv a
complete visualization of the
script. This new method will al-
low executives and technicians
to view an actual performance
on a cinema screen, thereby pro-
bably ensuring that fewer gam-
bles and more certainties will
emanate from studios.
Another advantage of this
harnessing of television In film
studios will be that film tests of
individual artistes may be speed-
ier, less costly and more advan-
tageous than the normal motion
picture artiste test.
If the experiment is successful
it could mean that producers In
this country will be able to as-
sess the value of, as It were, a
finished product instead of hav-
ing to try to assess the screen
potentialities of a story from the
script alone.
It is highly probable moreover,
think the television experts, that
this "marriage" of film and tele-
vision techniques might easily
prove beneficial to television stu-
dio productions.

favorites to cop the bunting in

and Whose hopes were temporar-
ily dulled when they fell Into a
\ slump midway through the first
half, continued to smash their
way into the win column, win-
. ntng their second straight 12 to
4 over Pabst to move into a half -
' game lead in the second half
'-race.
The game was a close affair
for three innings when, at the
'. end of the third, Powell's led 3
to 2. In the fourth. Powell's scor-
' ed six runs, and from there on
.' out it was a Powell's victory all
the way, and they coasted on
' through to a 12 to 4 win.
. Don Brayton sent Vlnce Ridge
to the mound for the winners;
'. but his fine five-hit performance
was completely overshadowed by
the Poweli 12-hlt attack against
\ two Pabst hurlers.
t Harry Dockery, the "grand old
' man" of the Twilight League,
', who has probably seen more sea-
sons than "any other player in
action today, was a powerhouse
'. at the plate with four singles in
four trips to the plate. Dockery
' also scored three runs and walk-
, ed once.
In addition to "Doc's" four,
Laurel Highley and Bubber Ridge
each had a pair of bingles to add
to the cause. Of the five hits
made by Pabst, Hughy Hale and
"Kikl" Jaramillo each had a pair.
Jimmy Coffey drew the start-
ing assignment for the losers and
he stuck around until the fate-
ful fourth when Powell's scored
six times. He was relieved by Ray
Simons, who finished the game,
allowing three hits and an equal
amount of runs. Coffey was
charged with the loss.

CURUNDU MEN'S OPEN
BOWLING LEAGUE
In the fifth week of bowling on
the Balboa alleys, the VFW Post
3822 team continued their win-
ning streak by squeezing out a;
three-point victory over the
league-leading Budweiser team."
The winning Vets, in struggling
out of the cellar, were sparked
by Rlzzo's 494 series, his highest
of the year. Steuwe's fine series
of 534 for Bud made tough com-
petition for the Vets.
In a battle of the anchormen
Carta Vieja took three points
from Angellnl, narrowing Bud's
lead margin to four points. John
"Anchor" McCarragher, bowling
for the last time with the Rum-
men, had a 515 series to top Liq-
uor-man Dick "Anchor" Col-
ston's 514 for the night. Mc, in
departing for the States, leaves
his league leading individual
score%f 168 for the "boys" to
shoot at for the remainder of the
season. Bon Voyage, Mc!
Canada Dry stomped on Acme
Paints by 216 pins in the last two
ttames to take three points. Al-
len's 503 series for the Soda-men
was high for both teams. His
teammate Lane, pushing him all
the way, wound up with a 498
series.
Balboa Beer "raised caln" with
the American Club but could on-
ly garner two points which re-
sulted In their replacing the Vets
In the cellar position. Bill Cof-
fey's sparkling 567 series for the
Club-men was by far the highest
for the night but was not suffi-
cient to gain the edge on the
Beer-men mainly on account of
Cain's nice series of 491.

The Sears team of the Classic
Eowllng League, composed of Ted
Melanson (All-Events Cham-
pion), Dick Colston, Lou Zebrock,
Wilber Norris, and Bud Baker,
last night snapped up three
points from the fourth place
Jantzen team, and by doing so,
secured the 1952 championship
of the Classic League.
The Jantzen five grabbed the
first game by a score of 857 to
818, but Sears came back to take
the second by a score of 954 to
952. The third game was tightly
fought, with Jantzen leading by
five marks in the sixth, only to
lose the lead and have 8ears
come bac kand lead by five
marks going into the tenth
frame.
In the tenth frame. Sears was
unable to improve the lead as
Coffey and ady doubled and
Jamison and Owesne tripled to
cut down the lead to the last
man. With Balcer sparing and
striking out, Morton, by doub-
ling, could have snatched victory
from defeat, but was unable to
do so. and Sears copped the third
game by a score of 952 to 933,
with plnfall also going to Sears
by a score of 2724 to 2687,
An energetic Nash-Willys team
closed the gap between second
and third place when it won
three points from the second -
place PAA team by taking two
games and pinfall. PAA won the
tirst game by a score of 859 to
822. but Nash came back in the
second to win, and In doing so,
established the Individual high
game of the season thus far with
a 1042. Nash also won the third
game by a score of 980 to 941, and
in winning the three points, clos-
ed the second-third place gap to
two points, with but two more
nights to play before the season
closes.
The win by 8ears, and the loss
of the three points by PAA now
gives Sears a 13-point lead with
two weeks left, and insures the
championship of the Classic
League for Lou Glud's quintet.
The standings of the league
after last night's play was as fol-
lows:
TEAM Won Lost
Sears............ 62 38
PAA.............. 49 51 !
Nash-Willys........ 47 53
Jantzen.......... 42 58
Next Friday evening, PAA will
oppose the Sears teab, while
Nash-Willys will engage the
Jantzen team. Jantzen still has
a chance to pull up into second
place, while PAA and Nash are
fighting for the same position.
The final night of play will find
Nash playing Sears, while PAA
will play Jantzen.

Olympic Weightlifting Champion
From U.S. Hopes To Retain Title
New York. March 8 (USIS>
Spectators at weightlifting con-
tests are not easily awed by
feats of strength. Nevertheless,
they were Impressed recently
by the performance of an Amer-
ican Negro at the world cham-
lonshlps held at Milan, Italy.
e was John Davis, a New York
subway guard representing the
United States in the heavy-
weight division. Despite the
handicap of a serious leg injury
he drew gasps from the audi-
ence when he stepped forward
and won his event by lifting a
total of 9S2 pounds.
Winning championships in
this strenouou.s sport has been
a habit with Davis for 14 years.
During that time the 30 year
old athlete has been undefeated.
He holds the world's record oi
1082 pounds and Is almost cer-
tain to represent the United
. 8tates In his weight class at the
coming Olympic Games in Hel-
sinki, Finland.
Davis ie a big man, but it
tow years to develop the mus-
ata that havp won for him
world fame. He b e g a n in a
Brooklyn. New York, municipal
filayground which was,a favor-
te with lifter?- and gymnasts.
SfThls made it rather difficult
for me to get Interested in any-
. tfQng else, says Davis. "I was
taken in hand by a fellow play-
mate, Steve Wolsky, and taught
the rudiments of body buildlne
and weightlifting. He trained
m and I gradually Improved
"under his coaching until I won
.the worlds title in the light
heavyweight class about a year
later." That was In 1938 at VI-
. enna, when Davis was a boy of
17
Though weightlifting Is not
considered a major sport In the
"United Btates. Americans have
'captured the world's team title
every war since 1946. Elimina-
i tion contests are already under
. way to determine members of
| the next U.S. Olympic weight-
lifting team. Davis will begin
' training for them soon, rils
! routine is short, but concentra-
1 ted and tiring. There are no
' secrets connected with it.
Davis feels that his muscular
talents have not only contribu-
ted to his health, but have pro-
vlded him with a liberal educa-
tion as well. During the course
of his athletic career he has
visited a great part of the world
Including most of the capitals
of Europe. This, he Is convinced
Is compensation for the small
financial reward there is in
weightlifting, even for the pro-
1 fessional.
In the 1948 Olympics at Lon-
; don the United States won 4
firsts, 3 seconds, and one third
' in weightlifting with a six man
squad. Dietrich Wortman, fath-
er of organized weightlifting in
the United States and manager
of the US. Olympic Oames at
Helsinki. But he knows his ath-
letes will have to be at peak
form to defeat the strongest
men of 50 other countries.
Wortman, a champion weight-
lifter in Germany before coming
to the United States, expects
the strongest rivalry to come
from Russia, Egypt, and Iran.

Soon In 13th
Straight Year
LONDON, March 8 (BIS)
Britain is shortly to enter her
thirteenth straignt year of uni-
versal military training.
Ever since May 1930, every
young man In Britain has been
liable ior compulsary service.
Since the end of World War
II more than a million con-
scripts have served in the ar-
med orces, and then passed out
for 3V4 more years' service in
the auxiliary services.
National Servicemen, as the
conscripts are known, are now
serving in Korea, Malaya and
Suea, and form an important
part of the powerful force
nearly five divisions which
Britain has placed at the dis-
posal of Gen. Dwight Elsenhow-
er.
During the last two years
more than a quarter of a mil-
lion young men have received
compulsory military training
each year. i
loaay, the majority of young
men in their late twenties in
Britain are fully-trained for
war, and Britain also has an
Invaluable reserve of trained of-
ficers ready to take over com-
mand of units at very short
notice.

Chicken Feathers
To Help Keep GIs
Warm In Wintertime
WASHINGTON, March 8
Chicken feathers, re g a r d e d
largely as waste material, will be
converted into a valuable com-
modity for keeping servicemen
warm In winter campaigns as a
.result of a new Army Quarter-
master Corps development.
Savings of tremendous quanti-
ties of wool are expected to re-
sult from the use of processed
chicken feathers as insulation
material In a newly designed
combination sleeping bag and
comforter which will replace the
present Armv wool sleeping bag.
The new bag has no wool in
Its construction and the outer
cotton cover Is wind resistant
and water repellent. Tests show
that it affords twice the warmth
of a wool bag.
The present wool sleeping bag

Chinese Reds Jail
III American Bishop
WASHINGTON, March 8
(USIS) An American bishop
who has been in China for 31
years has been arrested by Chi-
nese Communists.
A report from Hong Kong by
the press service of the Nation-
al Catholic Welfare Conference
in Washington tells of the jail-
ing of Bishop John O'Sea, who
was born In Connecticut.
The charges placed against
the Bishop and two Chinese
priests who were seized with
him are that they participated
in activities of the Legion of
Mary.
The Communists long ago
charged that the Legion Is 're-
actionary and counter-revolu-
nary" because of Its resistance
to the Communist efforts to set
up a "reformed church."
Bishop O'Sea. who is 64 years
old, Is known to be in poor
I health. He had recovered from
a ten-day Illness Just before his
I arrest.
The Bishop was the Superior
I of the first band of Vincentian
priests to go to China. During
the past three years, the Com-
munists have appropriated mis-
sion buildings and subjected Bi-
shop O'Sea and his priests to
gruelling court hearings.

211 Pentagon Press Agents Listed
As Missing Persons' By Probers
WASHINGTON, March 8 (UP)
House Investigators accused
the Defense Department today
of "hiding" at least 211 press
agents and ghost writers, and
ordered a searchng Inquiry Into
"excess personnel" employed
here by the military.
Chairman F. Edward Hebert,
whose House subcommittee is
digging into military waste, le-
velled the latest blast In his
running battle with the Penta-
gon.
He had asked for a list of pub-
lic relations and information
workerswhom he called "Pen-
tagon Pitchmen" seeking to dis-
tort his group's efforts to run
down waste of taxpayers' mo-
ney.
Thursday the Pentagon sup-
ailed a Hit of 184 such "infor-
mation" employes. Hebert
promptly denounced the list as
"inadequate and Incomplete and
shortened."
He said today that his staff,
Working late last night and early
"If so, we have about 105
names to go," he aded.
A a public hearing today, the
Louisiana emocrat demanded
that the Pentagon "reexamine
its conscience" and "confess" to
the omissions.
Berating military officials for
not supplying the full list, he
said his committee will examine
not only "habitual" distortions
by military press officers but
"the entire personnel problem
of the armed forces as related
to excess personnel at the seat
of government."
Hebert, who

listed employes alone, plus their
secretaries, runs "close to $1,-
000,000" a year.
He had no estimate yet foi
the unlisted employes.
A Pentagon spokesman said
there undoubtedly are a num-
ber of persons employed In In-
formation work at the Defense
Department and in the various
services who were not included
on the list presented to the com-
mittee.
But the spokesman Insisted,
"they didn't ask for a complete
roster."
He said Hebert, in his letter,
"asked for name, duties and
salaries of persons employed as
press officers, or public Infor-
mation officers, and of persons
whose duties entail writing
speeches or press releases."
Hebert snorted this might be
technically true, but said the
Pentagon knew very-well what
he wanted to find out.
